Adore a Monster FM24v2 The Silent Shambler returns at half price

Alternative Armies is working away. From Flintloque to The Ion Age to Erin and many other ranges and scales there are new creations a plenty from our wee team. Among these projects is one ongoing which is close to our hearts; the restoration of Asgard Miniatures. A titan of the 1980’s miniatures landscape its models are one by one, range by range; returning on our website. New molding means new life from legendary masters such as Nick Bibby, Jes Goodwin, John Blanche and others. 

While Asgard restoration has slowed down after Jes Goodwin’s Dwarfs and the epic undertaking of his entire massive Orc Range and we have been tending to our own 1990’s codes (see the DH Dwarven Hosts Range) there is still Asgard work going on. The first of the 2025 restored codes is ready and is here with a great Valentines Weekend Offer.  We invite you to Adore a Monster with 50% off regular price until 18th February on The Silent Shambler!

FM24v2 The Silent Shambler:  A one piece metal miniature which is 37mm tall to the top of the figure. Long arms ending in claws and a mouth full of teeth this creature never makes a sound.  Sculpted by Nick Bibby and our one painted by Studio Maxi to perfection.  It will function in 28mm scale but also 15mm and even 6mm as a monster.


Above you can see an Alternate Stars 28mm Sci-fi miniature facing off with the Silent Shambler perhaps in an alien hunt scenario?  A Dwarven Shield Maiden as well as a 15mm Elf Lancer on Horse show you its size in the fray with fantasy opponents.

The D5 Spike Tailed Dragon Lizard is 75mm long and 25mm in height and in two piece metal. Sculpted by Nick Bibby.  This was last years Love the Monster fun for Valentines Day and its 20% off too.  See all of Nick Bibby’s other restored work on the website in its own collection. 

Fancy something free for your miniature garden?  Every shipped order until March 10th 2025 automatically gets the brand new EH09 Flower of Evil included for free.  Yes totally free.  You need do nothing but order and it will be put in the package by us.

Keeping the fun in tabletop gaming and love of miniatures in your life.
